What is a blog? As to Wikipedia a blog is a type of a website or part of a website.  A blog is usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly shown from the latest post to the oldest or in other words in reverse-chronological order. I have been doing blogging for quite some time. I enjoyed sharing new thoughts and ideas to people who come to visit my site. Now I'm doing blogging for a specific company that I'm working for and that is North Bay MLS. With purposes that includes triggering readers and visit the site I am promoting and having permanent links for the website. I have been trying to figure out if these are the only intention why people, like me, do blogging. Goals as they say can either be for a certain business somebody is trying to work on or for personal use. Perhaps there is more to this than mere having backlinks and promoting.

What are the purpose why people compose blogs? I have been in the field of real estate for a pretty long time. I have encountered a lot of things, new and old, in the said business. It is quite difficult to get into a battle without knowing who your enemies are and what they are capable of doing. One main function of blogging is to provide information. I pick some fresh and new ideas by reading articles posted on blogs done by different people. Bloggers blog for the reason that they want to convey the ideas are running in their minds at the moment. They want to share a piece of knowledge they have to everyone. It is not just posting senseless things happening under the sun or anything you want or like. Try to observe that every blog revolves on a particular topic which is discussed throughout the entries. In real estate they have topics ranging from types of homes, investing in real estates, what property is the best for you, tips on home buying and so much more. Another goal I can site is promoting; may it be of a product, ones self, a website, a company, etc. People are able to see how blogging reaches billions of people from different parts of the globe. A single blog getting to millions of computers through the web. Through this they considered using it to promote products and services in order for others to be familiar with such. They would write about how good this merchandise is, what things this company offers and also what services the blogger himself or herself can give. In real estates they use blogging to promote listings of properties and what such property offers. Displaying the price, the type of house, its description and location and also number of bedrooms and bathrooms. Want to see some samples of listings of houses? Look at Santa Rosa homes for sale and homes for sale in Petaluma for excellent and reasonably priced houses for sale. Earn money in an easy but great way right? Talking of making money, some others would try make blogging as a business. Not all have the skill to write so many who are gifted with such make the most out of them. They would offer their service to someone or a company and write about things that the client wants. This kind of service is high yielding in the net right now. Even professionals are also engaging with such. They would use their expertise like real estate agents and realtors in the field of real estate to make a statement and elicit the interest of the probable clients. Authority truly has an effect to most people. They would tend to believe you more if you are in the authority to discuss things that you want.

These are only three ways how individuals use blogging particularly in real estates. Amazingly simple things can really result to something complex. Blogs are one of the best inventions done as a way of communicating with others. Regardless how people use it as long as it's for the good one, blogging will never degrade and diminish. Real estate blogging will still continue to gain momentum and prosper provided it is used in the correct way.
